    Sweet, with WPBA and WGTV, the only HD local with any interesting content (ACC football) we're still missing is WUPA!

    ESPN Thursday Night Football Blackout or mistake?

    It is definitely a mistake. This game is only on ESPN.

    Backfeeding a 722 - do I have this right?

    Cool, that's how I'm envisioning it! Don't need any splitters for more TVs but nice to see it's an option.

    Backfeeding a 722 - do I have this right?

    It's got its own line from the dish/through the ground block, so I was thinking by putting the diplexer behind the ground block on the 722 line only it wouldn't affect the 222 at all. Does that work?

    AMC HD on...

    According to Wiki, a channel called Wedding Central which is allegedly in HD on some cable systems. Also Sundance, but I don't think that's being broadcast in HD yet.

    Backfeeding a 722 - do I have this right?

    I need to add a 3rd TV in my house. Currently I have a 722 in my living room and a 222k in my office, which I'm moving to a bedroom.

    Games in HD but not on Dish in HD (Part time HD)

    Didn't realize the SEC baseball tournament was in HD until I saw it at a friend's house on Comcast... go figure. Also got the shaft on the Braves-Pirates game Saturday.

    Satellite and storms

    I always know it's about to rain because I lose signal. By the time the rain actually gets here it's usually back on. Very annoying, but I'm going to be cutting down a couple of trees that might be interfering in the next few weeks so hopefully it'll get better.
